Abstract
Many minimally invasive techniques designed to alleviate lower urinary tract symptoms have been evaluated, each of which offers a glimpse of the next generation of treatment. These minimally invasive techniques improve upon transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) by reducing the risk of postoperative complications. However, none have been compared with TURP in large-scale controlled trials, and therefore will not be able to replace TURP until their long-term durability is known.
